Mom of murdered student files wrongful death suit against Montgomery County Public Schools

The mother of an 11th-grader who was killed in 2022 filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Montgomery County Public Schools on Wednesday, arguing the school system failed to protect her son from bullying.

Alexis Jones-McDaniel, the mother of Jailyn Jones, sued MCPS, the Montgomery County Board of Education and the county itself in federal court.

“Not only did Northwest High School fail to protect Jailyn Lawrence Jones in any way, MCPS made informed decisions and took steps which actively increased the danger to and created new dangers Jailyn could not abate,” the complaint states...

...At the new school, the complaint states, Jones “was placed in classes with the same students by whom he had been bullied and had conflict at Clarksburg High School.”..

    Déjà vu. Typical MCPS business as usual.
    Not only they failed to protect our child from bullying and intimidation, but they also called social services accusing
    us of being neglectful parents!!!

    The issue with suing MCPS is that we the taxpayers foot the bill!
